Strep throat is a type of bacterial throat infection which can also involve your tonsils. There are many different types of throat infections - when you have a sore throat, it is difficult to tell if it is from bacteria or a virus. Strep testing allows us to verify if antibiotics are needed.

At MHP Urgent Care in Warren, we do strep testing in the clinic, and the test takes about 8 minutes. You will know your results before leaving!
